Hi, my name is Mariah (a.k.a. Queen of Awesomeness). I like art. I really like going to the museum and see the pretty art there. I could also stay home all day and do nothing but DRAW! What I like about art is that no one has to tell me what to do and how to do it. Art is one kind of creativity. I really like art!

PROBLEM:
How Do We Build a Catapult?
ASK:
What is Our Challenge?
The Angry Bird Competition is on … Angry Bird and Piggy Friends unite! To retrieve your stolen eggs, Angry Birds, your team will need to build a catapult with only the materials provided to you, as outlined in the following steps of this “Small Group Challenge: Marshmallow Catapults” Challenge: Each group will design and build a marshmallow catapult using the following materials: 1 meter of masking tape; 2 plastic cups; 4 rubber bands; 2 plastic spoons; 2 paper clips; 15 cm x 15 cm piece of cardboard; large (standard size) and small (mini size) marshmallows to launch Goal: Launch a marshmallow at least 5 meters (in the air) and not outside of a ½ meter width What is a Catapult?

A catapult is a type of weapon used in the medieval times to knock down walls. To get energy you have to tighten the rope by winding the wrench that tightens the ropes.
IMAGINE:
What are Some Solutions?
What is the Best Possible Solution?
Why did Our Team Choose This Solution?
PLAN:
What is a Diagram / Orthographic Design of Our Prototype?
CREATE:
What does Our Finished Construct Look Like?
IMPROVE:
What works, what doesn't work, and what could work better from Our Testing?
What are We going to do to address the Challenges We Faced with Our Construct?
PRESENTATION:
How do We Catapult Ourselves into Problem Based Learning?
